style(theme): add dialog & panel CSS vars and refactor status panel styles

Add CSS custom properties for dialog backdrop, shadows, and panel
highlights to centralize visual theming. Refactor the status panel
overlay to consume these tokens and use color-mix instead of hardcoded
rgba values. This improves visual consistency and lets overlays adapt
cleanly to appearance changes and theme variants.

- Centralize dialog and panel visuals with new CSS variables
- Replace fixed rgba values with tokenized colors and color-mix
- Move borders, shadows, and gradients to use the new theme tokens
